I could not be more excited to say that I am going to tackle the 100 Day Project this year! I’m going to try super hard not to cheat and create a bunch at once, unless I absolutely have to. I will be doing some travel, so some of that maybe necessary.
What is the 100 Day Project? Well, I’m glad you asked! It’s basically a challenge born on Instagram to pick a project and then do it for 100 days.
A best friend is doing 100 days of 100 words a day. I’m doing 100 days of paper doll clothing. No full outfits mind you, but like a shirt, or shoes, or dress or something. I suppose if I need to do something super quick, I could even do a necklace. But the idea is to do 100 days of different paper doll pieces.
And what is the prize? Well…. nothing. I just get to say I did.
The paper doll I’ll be drawing for is from my Etsy store. I’ve been meaning to create more clothing for those dolls for weeks/months and I am WAY behind. So, I thought- Well, this is a great chance. I know I need about 8 to 10 pieces to make up a page, so I can try to get 10 or more pages done.
If you want to follow along as I do my drawing, then follow me on Instagram. I’ll be posting there. I will try to remember to also post to Facebook and Twitter, but I’m not 100% reliable about that.
Tomorrow I’ll share my first piece on Instagram! Come say Hi! I could use the moral support.

Sounds fun! Will these be put on Etsy once they’re done?
Yes, that is the plan.
Great! Looking forward to it!
Hi! I follow your art work here and in Instagram. I have a blog about paper dolls(https://ootc-paperdollsproject.blogspot.com/) and an Instagram to. My goal is to draw more paper dolls. I followed the Inktober paper dolls challenge suggested by Miss Missy paper dolls Last year ( you can see them on my blog and Instagram) Can I join in this #The100DayProject challenge ? What it requires? there is a list of themes? 🙂 (I apologize for my english, I’m trying my best…)
You are welcome to join in! The more the merrier! The only rule (and it is more of a suggestion, really) is to tag your posts on Instagram with the hashtags #the100dayproject and #100daysofpaperdolls. The challenge officially began April 2nd (https://www.the100dayproject.org/), but I’d just join in if you want to. I’m drawing one piece of paper doll clothing a day, but I know Julie and Elizabeth have both drawn dolls, too. Also, your English is quite good!
Hi! I will join in, I’m working on a paper doll model base. So I will start sharing on Instagram next weekend and try to recover the 10 days delayed. : )
